Syslog events not generating

ishant_walia Dec 21, 2016 3:17 AM

Hi Experts,

I have installed NPM on 2012 r2 server and monitoring other 2012r2 server.

port 514 is opened at both sides, but still no syslog events.

Please help solve this.

Regards,

And the syslog agent on that server is configured to send the syslogs to that NPM server? Syslogs and Traps is different from classic SNMP. In SNMP the device gives you the information on demand. For Syslogs and Traps - the devices must be configured to send the messages to Trap/Syslog server (in this case NPM Trap/Syslog service) when certain actions occur (e.g. when CPU temperature exceeds threshold, when somebody tries to use invalid credentials to login, forwarding event logs and so on...).
